مستخلص: |
The article describes a security breach of Great Britain's Revenue & Customs department computer system that allowed hackers to steal one million pounds in tax rebates. Criminals used passwords from self-assessment taxpayers to file tax returns and have the rebates diverted to bogus accounts. Fraudulent emails had been sent to taxpayers that allowed the hackers to phish for secure information. |
